ambassador: Philippines Ambassador bombing (2000)
A temporal network representing snapshots of relationships among individuals directly or indirectly associated with Philippines Ambassador Residence Bombing 2000, Jakarta. Nodes are people, and an edge exists if they are associated with each other. Definition of the edge weight is unknown.
This network has 16 nodes and 13 edges.

SoundSculpt: Direction and Semantics Driven Ambisonic Target Sound Extraction
This paper introduces SoundSculpt, a neural network designed to extract target sound fields from ambisonic recordings. SoundSculpt employs an ambisonic-in-ambisonic-out architecture and is conditioned on both spatial information (e.g., target direction obtained by pointing at an immersive video) and semantic embeddings (e.g., derived from image segmentation and captioning). Trained and evaluated on synthetic and real ambisonic mixtures, SoundSculpt demonstrates superior performance compared to …

Local Ambiguity Shaping for Doppler-Resilient Sequences Under Spectral and PAPR Constraints
This paper focuses on designing Doppler-resilient sequences with low local Ambiguity Function (AF) sidelobes, subject to certain spectral and Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) constraints. To achieve this, we propose two distinctoptimization algorithms: (i) an Alternating Minimization (AM) algorithm for superior Weighted Peak Sidelobe Level (WPSL) minimization, and (ii) a low-complexity Augmented Lagrangian-assisted Majorization Minimization (ALaMM) algorithm with effective WPSL suppression.

Enhancing Customer Service Chatbots with Context-Aware NLU through Selective Attention and Multi-task Learning
Customer service chatbots are conversational systems aimed at addressing customer queries, often by directing them to automated workflows. A crucial aspect of this process is the classification of the customer's intent. Presently, most intent classification models for customer care utilise only customer query for intent prediction. This may result in low-accuracy models, which cannot handle ambiguous queries. An ambiguous query like "I didn't receive my package" could indicate a delayed order, …

Inter(sectional) Alia(s): Ambiguity in Voice Agent Identity via Intersectional Japanese Self-Referents
Conversational agents that mimic people have raised questions about the ethics of anthropomorphizing machines with human social identity cues. Critics have also questioned assumptions of identity neutrality in humanlike agents. Recent work has revealed that intersectional Japanese pronouns can elicit complex and sometimes evasive impressions of agent identity. Yet, the role of other "neutral" non-pronominal self-referents (NPSR) and voice as a socially expressive medium remains unexplored. In a…
